One thing is for sure, Resistance 2 has been highly acclaimed for its good and intelligent AI by most reviewers. That you don't like the design decision of being at the center of attention as the main hero of the game doing nearly all the dirty work (Like you did back in good old England, destroying their main Tower), that's your preference, not mine. Maybe the co-up campaign is better for you as all your 7 comrades are as important and you have a better chance to hide from the battle.
